Two excel problems

I am using Excel 2000, I have two problem, one small, one big
Small problem
I have a worksheet with just under 5000 rows and half a dozen columns. Two
of the columns contain telephone numbers. Unfortunately in the conversion
of the data to get it into a format that excel could use the leading "0"
was stripped from the phone number, how can I put the "0" back in again (I
don't have access to the original data so I can't rerun the conversion).
Big problem
This ones a little harder, I have a worksheet with around 40 telephone
number on it in one column (call this worksheet Y). I have another 10
worksheets (call these worksheet a,b,c,d etc.) which contain imported
telephone bill information (numbers called, duration, cost etc.). What I
want to do is see how often the number listed on worksheet Y appears on
each of the worksheets a, b, c, etc. Anyone tell me how??
Regards

Something which could fix the small problem ..
Assume tel#s' running in A1 down, and should be in 7 digits format
Put in B1: =IF(A1="","",TEXT(A1,"0000000"))
(Adapt the number of zeros to suit)
Copy B1 down. Col B will return the tel#s with the leading zeros (if
applicable). Then select col B > copy, and overwrite col A with a paste
special as values. Delete col B to clean up. Repeat for the other col of
tel#s.

In Y,
Assume the 40 tel nos are listed in A2 down
Assume the tel nos on the 10 sheets (a, b, c, d, etc) are all in col A
(The tel nos in Y -- with the "small problem" rectified -- and those in the
10 sheets are assumed to be in a consistent format)
List the names of the 10 sheets in B1 across, eg: a, b, c, d, etc
Ensure that these names are consistent with the actual names on the 10 tabs.
Watch out for typos, extra spaces, etc
Then just put in B2:
=IF(OR($A2="",B$1=""),"",COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&B$1&"'!A:A"),$A2))
Copy B2 across and fill down to populate the table

Directory Problem When Opening FilesHad this problem with my PC at work last week and the solution chosen by my
company's Help Desk people was to uninstall and then reinstall the whole
Microsoft Office package of programs. And while that fixed my problem, I've
got to believe that there is just one single file that needs to be deleted
or somehow reinitialized. The problem was fixed last week with the
uninstall and reinstall, but popped up again this afternoon. Hope one of
you can help me with this.

Pivot table in Excel 2007Hello experts
This pivot table has been created automatically in Excel 2007 : see the
following link
http://dl-1.free.fr/52616e646f6d495687b5f6522854b42d0ab1c5c335e8e7d2b3d67f4e6bf6721d/Pivottable2007template.xlsx
In this pivot table, how, you experts, will you replace the row "Grand
total" by a row "Difference" with a formula like Receipts - Expenses.
Thanks for your help!
Hi
One way would be to have another column in the source data, called
Expense2 with a formula
=Expenses*-1 (replacing Expenses with the relevant cell reference) and
copying down.

Changing file permissions when saving Word or Excel documentsHi,
I work in an office environment which consists primarily of PCs using
Office (Word, Excel, etc.). I have found that when I save an existing
Word or Excel file (Office 2004 with all the updates) which is on a
network drive with multiple user and group permissions, the write
permission reverts to just me, instead of the multiple users and
groups, i.e., it becomes read-only for everyone else. It doesn't
matter if the file is open with "(shared)" access on Windows first, if
I save it, it becomes read-only to everyone else.
Currently, I have to remember to immediately drop int...

Contracts Advanced Find Excel ExportWhen I perform an Advanced Find on "Contracts", the Export to Excel icon is

Not sure why Microsoft didn't put the export to Excel function in the

print window where you can select all and copy/paste into Excel and get
pretty much the same results.

COUNTIF (?) on two criteriaI have a spreadsheet that logs work activities and records team
members' completion of project units.
Column B records team member names. Column C has project unit status -
'pending', 'beta' or 'completed'.
It's easy to set up a formula to count how many units are allocated to
each team member - =COUNTIF(B1:B1000,"Joe"). But what I need to do is
set up formulas to count how many units Joe has completed, or has
pending or at beta, and this means assessing data in both columns -
which COUNTIF won't do.
This doesn't strike me as an especially...

Copy Word Text into ExcellGood Morning,
I have an Excell workbook that other individuals access and they need to put
a response at the bottom. However, when they attempt to copy their response
from a word document, it either won't accept it as the cells aren't the same,
or it continuously goes across the page. I tried merging cells, but that
didn't work. How can I accomplish this?

Two axisPositioning the Vertical axes:
I have a chart where there are two axes. The first implementation produced
the two scales on the right side, one inside, the other outside the chart
area. Unusual, but luckily it fits well the chart.
I tried to duplicate the feat with another dataset (similar in structure)
and did not even get the second scale to show right, left or center (data
plotted with two different scales allright).
Where is the info to control these functionalities?
